Datalogic provides a wide range of photoelectric sensors for universal and applications specific purposes, such as colour, contrast and luminescence sensors, fork sensors for label detection, as well as devices for dimensional and distance measurement.
The S100 series
The range of S100 universal miniature photoelectric sensors boasts standard miniature dimensions of 20 x 32 x 12 mm and a unique layout with four mounting holes, the S100 line is a universal solution for all mounting needs.
It is competitively priced and by combining this with standard optical functions, it makes this new sensor the ideal detection solution for applications in automated manufacturing machines and logistic lines that require many sensors in one application. Other features and benefits include:
• Quick and simple installation: With no adjustment required, the S100 series reduces set-up time and eliminates the risk of tampering with the equipment. This distinctive feature can be particularly useful in applications where a large volume of photoelectric sensors are being installed, requiring simple and fast maintenance.
• Offers a complete range of models: Through-beam at 12 m; retro-reflective at 8 m and polarised retro-reflective at 6 m; diffuse proximity at 30 cm and 50 cm; fixed focus at 70 mm; and background suppression at 100 mm.
• All models are offered with an M8 connector or 2 m cable, with either NPN or PNP outputs.
Typical applications for the new S100 miniature photoelectric sensor are automatic machines and packaging lines in the manufacturing industry as well as conveyors, sorting lines and automated warehouses in the logistics industry.
The S15 series
Complementing the already existing ranges of Datalogic tubular sensors (including the S51, S50 and S5 series), the new S15 series with a shorter housing, IP69k rating, also offers an explosion proof stainless steel housing option. Other primary benefits include:
• The S15 offers trimmer models that can be used instead of the standard tubular sensors (S51, S50, S5 series) when a shorter housing is needed or better degree of mechanical IP protection is required.
• Space savings as the barrel is much shorter than the standard sensor length.
• Cost savings, basic NPN or PNP output models available.
• Safe in harsh environments with its enhanced durability IP69k rating.
• Greater sensing distances offering better performance.
• Superior degree of protection the range is compliant to IP65, IP67 and IP69K.
• Johnson Diversey certification for use with detergents.
• Atex II 3DG certification.
This product series has been developed to satisfy the requirements of applications in processing as well as packaging machinery. Beverage bottling is a typical application for the S15 line and it is also suited to automated warehouse applications.
